Psychiatrist Andrew Marlowe has a perfectly ordered life solitary, perhaps, but full of devotion to his profession and the painting hobby he loves. This order is destroyed when renowned painter Robert Oliver attacks a canvas in the National Gallery of Art and becomes his patient. Desperate to understand the secret that torments this genius, Marlowe embarks on a journey that leads him into the lives of the women closest to Oliver and a tragedy at the heart of French Impressionism. Ranging from American cities to the coast of Normandy, from the late nineteenth century to the late twentieth, The Swan Thieves is a story of obsession, historys losses, and the power of art to preserve human hope.
